Break the seal on your tire to install new TPMS sensors yourself without needing to balance your tires again after. Do this if you are replacing an existing TPMS sensor, or if you are adding a sensor where you had a regular rubber valve before.

I am installing Autel MX Sensors in my winter tires. In my previous video, I showed you how to program these sensors. If you missed that, watch it here:    • Replacement TPMS Sensors for Cheap!  

Since I posted this video, Autel has released a new sensor that can work with 315MHz or 433MHz, which are available with either a metal or rubber stem. You can order these sensors online:

  • Whether it's balanced or not the video is geniously made if someone doesn't haven't the money to have these tpms sensors replaced.He was nice enough to show random people on YouTube how to diy, I thank him for that.
  • @j3lmn
    Your calm voice is the key to making hard things easy. I will be changing the TPMS sensors on my car this weekend. Thank you for the great tip!

    Holy cow I wish there was a best of Youtube. This would be on it. It's unreal that people are criticizing you for providing this free information. I'm really in disbelief. Anyway, amazing video. All the info with no extra wasted time. Awesome job.
  • @TBISYTC
    Clean, simple, no bs. One of the best TPMS replacement videos on YouTube. Thanks for uploading!
  • Gabe, the best DIY i've seen for TPMS replacement, nice work!
  • I never would have thought of doing this myself but now i'm at least considering it. I think the sensors i'm getting are the rubber kind that snap in so i'lll have to figure that out, but at least I have some confidence that i might be able to break and re-seat the bead.
  • Great video. I just paid $25 to get 1 wheel done, and that was labor only. I wish I had seen this video first! I’ll be sure to try this when my next sensor dies.
  • This is awesome I broke one of my tpms valve stems and ordered a new one on eBay and was going to pay $30 to a tire shop to install it!
  • The most complete TPMS sensor change on youtube. Great. Thanks.
  • you're a pretty smart guy. i enjoyed watching the way you work, and i will probably do this .
  • Nice how to clip as I take in refresher before doing four. Saw one similar lesson where guy used a scissor jack under a rear car trailer hitch, and maybe a block of wood, to break the tire bead. Got a very reasonable quote on phone from local tire shop to reprogram my new tpms numbers into my car computer, after I install then myself; planning to photo the units I install, and have good record of each number on each of them, and which tires those numbers went to, to make for an easier tire shop update. Wish I knew those units have above a 10 year life expectancy before my last tire change, because I would of done this at last tire change, if I had known that. ... Thanks for clip :+)

    Excellent and detailed vid, thanks for posting it. I now know why my Autel TPMS sensor was packaged with the metal stick/rod 👍🏽
  • @Horsedane
    Thank you for freely sharing helpful and very cost saving experience! You're a terrific human being in my book! I'll never need or use this info but it was generous and really well done for anyone who will! Thank you for putting it out there to save people money and to learn to do it themselves! If everyone was like you maybe bigotry and hate of others would dissipate! Thank you for teaching me this today! Carol
  • Super informative and your camera stayed nice and still. Thank you!
  • Thank you! This is a very helpful and clear video, you did a great job here!
  • Good video to the point and the tip about all season tires and stiffness is great. I often remove the valve core and use rubber hose over the valve stem and air gun for extra air volume. Then with the tire on its side push and pull rim center in and out by hand, just to catch the bead. If that fails use a ratchet strap or twist a rope around the tire that usually makes it catch the bead! Thank you for your video
  • @erkme73
    The only thing I would caution is if you have existing TPMS sensors, you probably want to break the bead 180 degrees from the TPMS sensor. As the tire starts to come down off the rim, it'll snap the transmitter of the old sensor off of the stem, at drop into the tire. That is a BEATCH to fish out of there with rim still inside the tire. Ask me how I know...
  • Huge help thank you, the trick to pop the tire off the rim is great. Also like that you are using same sensor I have on my car. Would like to add for people like me who already have sensor in tire to pop the tire off the rim on the opposite side of the the valve stem so not to damage the sensor.
  • Excellent tutorial! That is just what I needed to know.
